No camera today; I wasn't expecting to swim. But, I drove by the beach and it was beautiful. More beachgoers because of Spring Break for some folks. The water had settled down quite a bit but fins were still a good idea for me. As it turned out, I would have survived without fins. The current was mild to the south. The water was cold and fresh. There were big swells out there and the breaking waves were powerful-about 3 different lines of parallel breaks. I got thrown around pretty good coming in-guess the fins were nice to have on, now that I think of it. I remember kicking the fins to fight back to the surface a couple of times.
A good, rough swim overall. Took me 6 minutes to get out through the surf. The swim around was mildly choppy but fun.
